Here at mikeroweWORKS, we believe that everything was brown before it was green and that’s where people should start. Or so we think anyway. Watch the video and see what the term “Brown Before Green” actually means.
From the outbox of Meyer’s video inbox:
The hardworking and dedicated staff of mrW is all about the brown before the green. If you’re new to the site and not familiar with this concept, then check out Mike’s opinion on the matter. Actually, its less of an opinion and more of a great way to think (or rethink) about our own carbon footprints.
On a recent edition of the ABC News, they had a story about a boat launching out of San Francisco bay made of recycled materials. In fact, plastic bottles filled with carbon dioxide is what’s actually keeping the boat afloat. They’re heading off to Sydney, Australia to raise awareness of the stuff we leave behind. Let’s hope they make it safe and sound with a story to tell.
The closest I might come to a project like this would be building a birdhouse out of popsicle sticks. Well, if it means eating hundreds of popsicles then I’m just the guy to do it. Check out the ABC story about the Plastiki by clicking here.
BTW, have any of you good folks put recycled materials to use in your lives? Let’s hear about and let’s see the photos!
Who’s gonna clean up this mess? We made it, we’ve lived with it and now what – we want to ignore it? Nah uh – doesn’t work like that and thank goodness there’s people like Chad Pegracke. Somebody’s Gotta Do It.
